We have a script outline for a wacky Taigaa! movie - more to come.
The Free
Music Project
Create a free universal archive containing the sum total of
human musical expression, and solicit contributions to it.
Approach individuals and organizations about contributing music
to the Free Music Project, for example the estate of Woody
Guthrie, post their respective contributions to our website, and
publish an updated contributors and non-contributors list.
The purpose of this philanthropic project is to inspire a global
endeavor to collect, preserve, and create a permanent and easily
accessible record of all of the contributions that musicians
have made to the betterment of human culture and civilization.
Hopefully the selfless grandiosity of this project will help to
put in perspective the greed of most record companies and
for-profit musicians, and possibly it will shame them into
making a free content contribution to the project.
The Open Studio Network
(Music Underground Railroad)
Create an open network of audio engineers and DIY music labs
that will offer free studio recording, live music recording,
music production, and audio mastering services to struggling
and/or impoverished musicians, in exchange for their
non-commercial contributions to the Superorganica project.
LoMax
Create a modern day music recording and preservation project,
similar to Alan Lomax's field recordings for the Smithsonian
Institution, that will create a contemporary archive of "found"
musical culture. For example, we could record the "Get F--ked
Up" guy (a homeless guy who hangs around Churchills in Miami).
Anyone with a low cost digital music recorder or even casette
tape recorder could participate in recording found musical
graffiti worldwide.
RePublisha
Create a division of Superorganica that re-records public domain
songs under the Creative Commons license e.g. "The Shanghai
Noodles Head South : A Tribute to Lightnin' Hopkins". The
purpose of this project is twofold, first to create a renewed
public interest in the many lost classics that inhabit the
public domain and, in so doing, draw public attention to the
high quality of public domain content, and, secondly, to
undermine any future attempts by for-profit interests
to repackage and recommoditize these free and open assets.We
will also link and find all good quality public domain content
and repost to the superoganica site. By sifting and cherry
picking through available public domain media, we can create a
lot of ipod fuel quickly.
KidsSongs/SuperKids
Create a division of Superorganica that re-records public domain
children's songs, stories and nursery rhymes under the Creative
Commons license, for example "Woof : Sparkydog Presents
Prokofiev's Peter and the
Wolf", as well as collects and collates public domain and free
content materials for inclusion in free media bundles that well
be donated to schools and educational organizations. We can
perhaps tie this into the One
Laptop For Child Project.
